SOURCE: SCIENCE DAILY MIND-BRAIN FEEDTITLE: Popular sugar substitutes linked to faster brain aging
URL: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/07/260717033213.htm
Several popular sugar substitutes may not be as harmless as they seem. Adults who consumed the most artificial sweeteners showed substantially faster declines in memory and thinking, especially if they were under 60 or had diabetes. The highest intake was linked to cognitive aging roughly 1.6 years faster than the lowest intake. Researchers stressed that more studies are needed before concluding that sweeteners are the cause.
